"You can not fail if you resolutely determine that you will not." -Abraham Lincoln

Head Start?

It has been established that this program is a failure except to the extent that it provides “free” day care.
What I did not know, was how much it costs. The annual bill is $7.6 Billion and it serves about a million kids according to the Wall Street Journal. That works out to $7,600 per kid to finger paint and have snack time. $76,000 for 10 kids. How does that compare to private day care operations?
Free seems a little expensive.
